Representatives of Councils of Government and Metropolitan Planning Organizations — leadership, professional staff, board members, local elected officials, technical and program staff — share best practices and learn about relevant issues. Speakers include experts from the public and private sector, congressional and state lawmakers, and individuals from universities and non-profit organizations.

The Communications/Government Affairs (CGA) Working Group and the Housing Working Group will each hold two sessions focused on key topics relevant to their fields, along with one meeting to discuss strategic priorities and progress on ongoing initiatives.
